(documentation medicine EnglishLanguage "A Relation between a Medicine and a DiseaseOrSyndrome that is believed to be treatable by that medicine. Note that due to the complexity of biology, the causes of various maladies may not be completely known and treatments can be used based simply on a preponderance of evidence of co-occurrence rather than complete causal models of efficacy, so this relation does not entail a commitment that a disease is actually treated effectively. It does however commit to belief in the treatment by a MedicalDoctor.")	Mid-level-ontology.kif 10989-10995
